The Panther update offers greater server stability when resharing Xsan volumes via NFS, it also includes fixes for handling quotas with no associated user or group name, maintaining access to Xsan volumes when metadata controller failovers occur, and operating Xsan in environments with a mix of 10.3.9 and 10.4 systems, states Apple.

An Xsan Admin 1.1 Update update is also available for both flavours of the Mac operating system. This update delivers overall improved reliability for remotely administering, according to Apple.
